MOUNT PLEASANT HAUNTINGS: Riverside Cemetery

The Central Michigan Paranormal Society investigated Riverside Cemetery, 714 W. Broadway St., over Labor Day and was shocked with the results.

Often skeptical during their investigations, the group initially wasn’t expecting much.

But what they saw is something they will never forget.

Grosse Ile sophomore Kara Taylor said the group arrived at the cemetery at about 11:30 p.m.

She said they saw what appeared to be a man crouching over one of the gravestones, leaning against it.

Taylor said the man then took a few steps toward them and then start running the other direction.

The man’s color started changing, Taylor said.

“He was black then he turned white,” she said. “We could see right through him.”

Taylor said she was shocked to have seen what may have been a real ghost.

“I remember thinking, ‘this can’t be real,’” Taylor said.

She said she felt a sad and distressed presence in the man and it felt like they were invading his privacy.

“I could feel my heart beating in my arms,” said Grosse Ile sophomore Lisa Semetko, president of the Central Michigan Paranormal Society.
